Paradise (doukoto)

Gift

Its been four months since that day, and Kotoha still morns from the loss of her child, She became calmer and was able to leave the room and socialize. It hurt her to know the fate of the Douma's poor victims, how their eyes light up when they're called to his private chambers only to be effortlessly slaughtered before they could even voice their appreciation.

Douma has been recently watching Kotoha to see how she's been, even though he had nothing to worry about, Nobody would believe her if she told, but then again he didn't want her to run off like last time either. He didn't know why he had such a fondness for the girl, She was as pathetic as the rest of them, And as dimwitted. She was talking to a member when she saw Douma looking at her. His heterochromatic eyes locked onto her emerald green ones. She immediately looked down with a scared and uncomfortable look in her eyes as she quickly excused herself and ran off. Douma frowned as he got up and started to follow her.

Sweat trailed down her face as she ran to the only safe place she thought of. Her room. though it was only a few doors away from his room she still ran as fast as her legs could carry her. She ran into her room and slammed the door, her breathing was labored as she huffed to catch it. Even after all this time, he made her blood run cold knowing what he could do at any time. She knew she couldn't run forever, but she couldn't stand looking at him. His eyes radiated purity but nothing else was pure about that man, He was a demon, literally. She was shaken from her thought when she heard the sound of knocking on the wall by her door, She quickly focused on the large silhouette standing in front of the doorframe.

"Kotoha are you ok-" He was quickly cut off by kotoha replying back in a panicked voice.

"I'm fine!"

"Can I come in," He asked slowly opening the sliding door.

Kotoha panicked as she looked around for an excuse to stop him. He opened the door and walked into the small room, Kotoha looked at him with a frantic expression on her face eyeing the door and him at the same time contemplating if she should run or not, He grabbed her by the shoulders and Kotoha turned still as a board felling his cold hands. She looked at him, She had to. Tears threatened to fall from her eyes as she whispered out, "I don't want to die" In a shakey tone.

"Oh nonono Kotoha I won't kill you," He pouted at the smaller girl.

"What makes me different from the rest of the girls," She sobbed.

Douma looked down at her silently, He didn't know the answer himself. Kotoha blinked back tears and punched him on his chest repeatedly.

"ouch," He said blankly.

"I'm sorry," Kotoha sobbed as she stopped.

"No it's my fault," He replied. His tone much lower now.

She looked up into his now have-lidded eyes, He slowly walked to her and pushes her onto her bed. he quickly got on top of her causing her face to turn red, She tried to squirm but his body caged her in.

"Err..Douma.." She whispered.

"Shhh. Let me make up for it" He said in his honeyed baritone voice.

Douma began to caress her face lovingly then proceeded to go to lower, Her eyes curiously followed his hands down to her obi which he slashed a second later causing her to let out a little squeak in shock.  He let out a gruff laugh before going back up to her chest and Moving her kimono to the side exposing the thin white hadajuban under, If kotoha wasn't as red as a tomato then now she is. Douma looked at her bashfully red face and gave her a quick kiss on the forehead before pulling out something in his tan-colored hakama. Kotoha was too disoriented to even notice it before he placed it neatly between her collarbone and breast. Kotoha looked down at the black box while douma got up and walked to the door.

"w-wait lord douma," Kotoha squeaked.

He turned around and looked at her like nothing happened.

"Uhm..what is this," She questioned as she got up and showed him the box.

"Its my way of making it up to you silly girl," He smiled

"And uhm. What about my kimono, you tore it," She said meekly.

"I'll have someone deliver you a new one, Now goodnight kotoha ," He smiled as he walked out.

Kotoha didn't know what she expected to happen, But she didn't expect that at all.
